Can't sell? It was outselling Champions in the direct market (I'll quote the December direct market estimates below). So that's good enough, I thought. Teen Titans was the more popular of the two Titans books though.
65 52 Teen Titans 25 $4.99 12/19/18 DC 27,285 76 82 Titans 31 $3.99 12/12/18 DC 24,870 105 111 Champions 27 $3.99 12/12/18 Marvel 18,199

Excuse me? Aren't they doing exactly that with Young Justice?

Proper conclusion for a run started roughly and ended badly. DD will be happy.
"It's too bad she won't live! But then again, who does? - Gaff Blade Runner
"In a short time, this will be a long time ago." - Werner Slow West
"One of the biggest problems in the industry is apathy right now." - Dan Didio Co-Publisher of I Wonder Why That Is Comics
Didio doesn't mind legacy characters as much when they are still young. It is probably why they made Tim Robin again in the YJ book to move him back where he doesn't feel as old. It is when the legacy characters age up that Didio doesn't like them. Like his argument against Dick has been that he isn't Robin anymore and too old to be Robin and he can't be Batman so he is dispensable in his eyes.
Let's not kid ourselves. The Terminus Agenda is the only thing saving Teen Titans right now, it'll be cancelled soon too. And Titans, since it has a successful TV show going at the moment, will likely be relaunched. It's Teen Titans that I'm more worried about. As long as Tomasi is on Tec, Damian has a home, and as long as YJ exists there's no reason for Teen Titans to.
"We come into this world alone and we leave the same way. The time we spent in between - time spent alive, sharing, learning together... is all that makes life worth living." - Jean Grey
Well, I guess if they cancel Teen Titans that will probably put the kaput on Damian's new generation of heroes for the foreseeable future.
I can kinda guess how Didio operates from the past few years
If it's an all-star author like Snyder, King, Morrison, or Bendis, he'll let them do whatever
If it's a character he doesn't care, he lets anyone do whatever with them (Nightwing)
If he has an idea, right or wrong, wise or not, he'll push it forward unless someone and/or the loss of money talks him out of it. (New 52 in general)
